– The following quotes and updates from Matt Hardy come from an interview WWE.com did with him shortly after his surgery:
âI am feeling ok, I have definitely been better,â said the recovering Hardy. âThe surgery lasted between 60-90 minutes, and the prognosis was that I was lucky they got in there when they did.â Matt continued, âThe appendix had already ruptured, and the toxins from that rupture were poisoning my body. I am used to the aches from my career, but this was the most miserable pain I had ever experienced. I had cold chills with hot sweats, and just couldnât find a comfortable way to lie down or sit. I felt like I was dying it was so bad.â
The problem became serious when Hardy made his way to Tampa last night. âI made my way to the arena last night, and still was in such considerable pain that I went straight to the trainerâs room, and they sent me to the hospital for a CT scan.â The scan revealed the enflamed appendix, but the burst was not seen until the appendectomy was underway. Now Matt Hardy must face a road of recovery that will see him out of action much longer than he had envisioned as he chases the United States Championship held by MVP. âI will be here in the hospital until the antibiotics clean the rest of the toxins from my body, and then from there it will be anywhere from 8-10 weeks before I get back into action,â Hardy explained.
